Article Synopsis
  • - Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) neuropathy is a genetic disorder affecting peripheral nerves, with thiamine (vitamin B1) potentially improving symptoms; this study explores thiamine’s effects when taken daily.
  • - Patients showed improved hand grip strength with thiamine and its derivatives (sulbutiamine and benfotiamine), but no significant differences in thiamine-related blood levels were found compared to healthy controls.
  • - Interestingly, while thiamine raised grip strength, it also reduced certain enzyme levels (holo-transketolase) in CMT patients, and the way transketolase was activated by thiamine differed between the CMT group and controls, highlighting complex
